Chinese Giant Tencent Acquires 25% of Assassin's Creed Publisher Ubisoft
Ubisoft,The French based game devolaper who owns I.P Such as Assassin’s Creed,Far Cry, Prince of Persia and Watch Dogs had a rough year to say the least.
In the last couple of years company had rough launches and dissapointing sales resulted in companies’ stock value to drop unfavoritible levels.
They were rumors going around that the Chinese video game company known as Tencent was looking to purshace the French Studio but those rumors stayed as rumors as nothing came of it until today.
Last week Ubisoft launched their highly anticipated game Assassin’s Creed Shadows and despite the impressive player numbers apperiantly it wasn’t enough for Ubisoft to say no to Tencent’s offers.
Today it was reported that Tencent just acquired 25% of Ubisoft.
How will this effect Ubisoft’s work will be reamin to be seen but i think its safe to say that Ubisoft should get used to not owning their studios.
